Go to Post Machinery tends to make chips fly into weird places. Lathes and mills are particularly good at this, though drill presses are skilled as well. - Karibou [more]

We have used 10/10 since 2003.

In 2003 we used all the connectors, which added up to be a pretty hefty penny. We didn;t have an issue with weight, but then again, our robot only weighed 90 lbs after we ripped our entirely ineffective stacker off it
